A 10 mm thick En-24 steel yielded a valid plane strain fracture toughness of 80 Mpa √m. The minimum yield strength of the steel is . . . . . . . . MPa.

A. Dislocation pile-up B. Large number of slip systems C. Low stacking faultenergy D. Dislocation climb

A. Lamellar B. Widmanstatten C. Acicular D. Nodular

A. decreases because the oxygen ions supplied by the sodium oxide break the chain structure of the silicate slag B. increases because the oxygen ion supplied by the sodium oxide further add to the oxygen network in the slag C. remains unaffected because fundamentally one can not distinguish between the oxygen ions supplied by the sodium oxide and those already present in the slag D. remains unaffected because the oxygen ions fill up the holes and vacancies present in the liquid slag

A. P-4, Q-3, R-2, S-1 B. P-1, Q-2, R-3, S-4 C. P-2, Q-4, R-1, S-3 D. P-2, Q-4, R-3, S-1
